TM Search Help

[Artisan]

Where is the proper spot to ask for TM Search help?

I have an 8' x 10' Ridgid shelter I need all the TM's for it ;
( I looked hard)

I am stumped...

I own a ;

S-715/T (*9)(MARINE CORPS) SHELTER 10-FOOT 5411-01-298-1661 REPRODUCTION/DISTRIBUTION FACILITY

I want the TM's, specifically the parts TM if possible.
The silly overhead fluorescent 4' long fixtures have bulb
receptacle ends (Tombstones are what electricians call them)
that have a thumb push release mechanism
and I would love to find some of them!

This is the socket/tombstone end I seek. In this pic you can see on the left
where a lever would stick out that you depress w/ your thumb to remove and
insert new bulbs.

I guess an alternate would be if anyone has a like light fixture and they
will sell me the parts.

There are no TM's for Marine Corps only items, that is why you are having trouble finding them. However I did find out that they are shelter type S-715/T which might be helpful for finding out more about them. First there is wikipedia, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_numbered_(rigid_wall)_shelters_of_the_U.S._Army

Since this is a 'standardized military shelter type' you can probably find the light parts in TM 10-5411-201-24P, which is an expandable version that uses the same lighting system inside. It is available on LiberatedManuals.com HTH

THANK YOU for the reply and please excuse me for not getting back
to you sooner, I did see your reply and just got lax...

I saw that info... I still could not find anything other than REPLACE FIXTURE!
Maybe some day I will run into someone who has a decrepit can w/ some parts.

Thanx Again!

Show me a picture of the tent. I might know someone who can help.

Guy it is a ridgid shelter as you see here on the truck.

You might look into Coleman's Surplus. They have things like your lights.

 

[Guyfang]

It might have the same light set up as a SATS tool trailer. The TM for the SATS is TM9-4910-783-13&P. Might be worth your while to take a look see. And of course, the SATS will make you want to sell your first born, to be able to buy one.
